Rockin' The Baby

You may remember a while back I participated in Shell's Rock The Bump. Well this time she is Rockin' The Baby.

Now this was more difficult for me as well- let's just say I wanted to share 70 million pictures, but I did good and narrowed it down and even tried to have a theme to it.

So in birth order here they are.

Lucas-After 18 hours of labor, throwing up several times during labor, 4 hours (yes I said hours) of pushing- and then an emergency c-section

Well this is how I looked when I held him for the first timeThe standard hospital picture-- these blankets seem to be everywhere in the countryA proud new daddyNow number 2- A planned, scheduled c-section, no labor= much happierHere was our first picture with our new girl- yes this was in the operating room- be very glad I didn't show you the picture Eric took that came shortly before this. (and since I know somone would ask-that was a thermometer on my head)Her future chubbiness already showing (see same blanket-she was born in a different state)I took this picture while lying in the hospital bed- a forever favoriteNumber 3

Scheduled c-section for July 1st-- and opps- he had his own plans, came at 32 weeks while we were on vacation.

First time seeing my little guy- only 4 lbs 9 ozHis hospital bed- though his hospital bed was much different and he was in it for 19 daysFirst time his siblings met himAnd to give you an idea of his sizeYou can see a lot more pictures of Ryder here

And now- well all of those babies have gotten too bigHead on over to Shell's to see other great Rockin' the Baby Pictures.

What a fun walk with you down memory lane!! All the pics are beautiful!

I totally wish the hospital staff had wheeled my babies from the NICU in to see me. I had to go an entire 24 hours before seeing each of them because I couldn't leave my room and they wouldn't bring the babies in their incubators to me.

It's true that you have the cutest little kiddos ever. And I'm pretty sure my babes had the same blankets here in Orange County. I've never thought about the fact that they do seem the same everywhere.
